England, meanwhile, were the better team in the opening day of the first Test. The visitors started well with Rory Burns and Sibley scoring briskly. The opening pair shared 63 runs for the opening wicket before Ravichandran Ashwin removed Burns, who was out trying to play a reverse sweep. Bumrah then trapped Daniel Lawrence for a five-ball duck leaving England reeling on 63/2. Root and Sibley then shared a 200-run partnership to wrestle back the control and put England in command.
